It has been prooved by General Theory of Relativity that light is affected by gravitation........
As particles photons travel in a straight line unless they are diverted by reflection, refraction, or a magnetic or gravitational field. Note that when it comes to gravity it can also be represented that the light continues in a straight line - but the space it travels through is curved so its path appears curved to the outside observer.
An object in space that does not interact with a planet's gravitational field would follow a straight-line path through space, unaffected by the planet's presence. This could happen if the object has sufficient velocity to escape the planet's gravitational pull or if the planet is too far away for its gravity to have a significant effect on the object's trajectory.
To estimate the gravity on a planet, you would need its mass and radius. The mass can be determined through observations of the planet's gravitational effects on nearby objects or other celestial bodies. The radius can be measured through direct imaging or transit methods. With this information, you can apply the formula for gravitational acceleration, ( g = \frac{G \cdot M}{r^2} ), where ( G ) is the gravitational constant.
You can replicate the effects of increased gravity through speed. If you are in a moving vehicle which suddenly stops, you will get thrown forward, which is partially due to increased gravitational force or g-force. If you are on a fast-moving ride at a funfair, you experience increased gravity.
Yes, the two moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos, are held by Mars' gravity. The gravitational force of Mars keeps these moons in orbit around the planet as they move through space.
Photons are affected by gravity because they have energy and momentum, which can be influenced by gravitational fields. Gravity can cause photons to change direction or lose energy as they travel through space. This effect is known as gravitational lensing.
The revolution (not rotation) of the planets around the sun is not an example of straight gravity. It is a combination of two forces: gravity and inertia. Gravity, working without inertia, would pull the planets into the sun, in a straight line. Inertia, working without gravity, would send the planets sailing through the galaxy, in a straight line. The total effect of these two opposing forces is an orbital path. Gravity and inertia, in this situation, are also referred to as centripetal and centrifugal forces.
Gravity doesn't care what, if anything, is in the space between the objects. Whatever it is has no effect on the mutual gravitational forces of attraction between them. There's no such thing as "gravitational shielding".
Any straight line through its centroid (centre of gravity).

Intense gravitational waves shock the velocity of massless objects including photons or any other electromagnetic radiation carriers, and this is linked to Einstein's general theory of relativity and the gravitational lensing effect dictated by larger objects around which light velocity vector bends but its value remains invariant.
Gravitational force is a natural phenomenon that exists everywhere, including in your home. Every object with mass exerts a gravitational force on other objects. You can find examples of gravitational force in your home by observing objects falling to the ground when dropped or feeling the pull of gravity keeping you grounded to the Earth.
because the gravity on earth is to weak to pull us straight through the floor ;)
There is no such thing as gravitational force. Mass curves spacetime and stuff moves through spacetime in straight spacetime paths. The effect of this is what we call gravity. The more the mass the greater the curvature of spacetime.
Gravity and inertia are two separate forces that act on objects. Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards each other, while inertia is an object's resistance to changes in motion. Inertia causes objects to continue moving in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force, such as gravity pulling the object towards a gravitational center. So, gravity can influence an object's inertia by changing its motion through acceleration or deceleration.
Yes, they do. But they sometimes travel a straight line through bent space.
